384 - Gingin Suburb Spotlight ft. Craig Hyne

Trent Fleskens interviews Craig Hyne from Country Values about property and land trends in Gingin (population just over 800) and nearby towns like Bindoon, Guilderton and Lancelin. Craig outlines Gingin’s farming and horticulture roots, limited housing construction for decades, and the impact of the new Brookview Estate (107 residential lots plus a commercial area) near the town centre. Blocks that once sold for $100–$120k rose from about $149k in late 2023 to around $225k by the final stage, while the 12‑month median house price is about $630k, up from roughly $450k pre‑COVID, with scarce listings and examples of sharp resale gains. Buyers include metro downsizers, FIFO workers and investors, with growing in-migration and demand for further land supply; Craig also notes strong uptake in South Lancelin, with many eastern states investors.
